Synopsis
German Columbus celebrates the lives and work of the German immigrants who made their homes and their livelihoods in a tight-knit, cohesive neighborhood in the Old South End of Columbus, Ohio. Natives of Germany arrived in the capital city as early as its founding in 1812, but it was only after 1830, when new transportation routes from the east facilitated travel, that a major wave of German immigration began. By the 1850s, the area just south of downtown Columbus had a distinct flavor, with school lessons and church services conducted entirely in German and with several newspapers printed in the German language to serve the community. Merchants, business owners, and brewers, the hard-working Germans were the largest immigrant group in the city, totaling a third of the population through the end of the 19th century. Later, a shift in public opinion against immigrants and anti-German sentiment arising from World War I resulted in a rapid assimilation of Germans into the general population. Today, some of the Old South End survives in historic areas such as the Brewery District and German Village.

    I am so impressed by this buyer. Thanks, Jim, for somehow getting this order to me. About two weeks ago, it was marked as delivered, (but really was not...) I contacted Jim, and somehow, the delivery arrived yesterday with a handwritten note!! I would like to know how to pay the seller again, as the order was cancelled after several days and my payment was refunded. Many thanks to both Jim and E-bay for your excellent service. And the Sand Sharks are fabulous and match the originals I had!

    Fast shipper! And even though USPS took the package on the scenic route AND misrouted the package, when it finally arrived, it was safe and sound thanks to the truly stellar, above and beyond packaging! A great deal from a seller who obviously believes in customer service and value. Highly recommended! A++++

    The item arrived way faster than I could have hoped for, the hat was in perfect condition, exactly as described. It was well packed, arriving safely in the UK from the US. The seller offered a fantastic deal to get the item to me. I'm absolutely delighted and would absolutely buy from this seller again.

  • Lots of info and photos.

    This is a good book for those looking for historical information regarding Germans and the beer industry in Ohiio. Why is this review in such light gray text? Difficult to see when there is so little contrast between text color and background. Hopefully it will at least post in black.
